Talking about Palmer playing wide right or putting MVE out of position just to give Sakamoto a rest is exactly why we needed at least one player in yesterday
I’m not convinced that MVE can play RW. He’s a better defender than he is attacker imo. Good link up with Sakamoto but tends to be Sakamoto who is beating men and delivering the balls into the box while MVE is more of a support man. He’s got a good shot on him though so might chip in with a few if he plays further forward.

MR will play him on Saturday and rest him on Tuesday most probablyTalking about Palmer playing wide right or putting MVE out of position just to give Sakamoto a rest is exactly why we needed at least one player in yesterday
Robins said he was knackered which is why he didn't play in the cup and he looked leggy on Tuesday.He doesn't need a rest, he had a rest, he'll be OK.
We’ve not been relevant for a very long time people from outside this country probably have no idea about our history that’s all.Germans tend to say things to the point, the nuances don't exist as much in their language as ours so they don't translate very well.
Personally I think we're a big club for the Championship, but maybe compared to money clubs who have recently been in the PL we are punching above our weight and have been for a little while.
The Murderers also known as the Gardeners Arms depending on which side of the pub sign you're looking at. Former landlord offed his wife and DIDN'T get executed as he claimed his wife was a bad 'un.Try the Murderer’s on Timber Hill, great pub and away friendly.
Sheaf been our best player for weeksDidn’t expect much from our away matches at Sunderland and Boro recently and was pleasantly surprised at the outcomes. Hope for more of the same at Norwich which would be really be a big statement.
Feel like the optimism has been sucked out of this season a bit with not boosting the squad short termSheaf been our best player for weeks
Need a few others to excel
Can’t see us avoiding a defeat
Allen starts for me camCollins
Bidwell
Kitching
Thomas
MVE
Lati
Eccles
O'Hare
Wright
Simms
Palmer
Give Saka half an hour or so unless the game is done. Would be happy with a draw.
You think O'Hare gets dropped?Allen starts for me cam
Assuming Torp isn't in contention to start yet it's between Lati and Allen, just think away from home I'd prefer the defensive qualities Lati offers.Allen starts for me cam
No I’d play Allen deeper with EcclesYou think O'Hare gets dropped?
Also Kelly surely agpheadvof Latibeaudiere. I like Latibeaudiere but not really in midfield. He's a good central defender but not convinced by him elsewhere.
Yeah fair argumentAssuming Torp isn't in contention to start yet it's between Lati and Allen, just think away from home I'd prefer the defensive qualities Lati offers.
The only game Sheaf has missed since switching to 4 at the back was boxing day, Lati played and we won.
Not sure about that. Torp looks the business, and the Posh winger for next season. I think the O'Hare contract, 3 mediocre performances against teams we should beat and Sheaf's injury had led to this slight dip in spirit.Feel like the optimism has been sucked out of this season a bit with not boosting the squad short term
Sheaf injury massively. I actually thought Bristol were a good side.Not sure about that. Torp looks the business, and the Posh winger for next season. I think the O'Hare contract, 3 mediocre performances against teams we should beat and Sheaf's injury had led to this slight dip in spirit.

So when we go 2-0 up it's time for 'We're too sexy for this league, too sexy for this league....'Rod Stewart it. Is then!

I would play Kelly.
Will be a hard match but let's also stop writing the game off before we've even kicked a ball!
Saka had a rest against sheffield Wednesday, he's only played 1 game in a fortnight, how much more of a rest does he need?If Saka needs a rest I’d play Palmer (at least for 60 mins) on the right.

You think the players don't do anything between games? Recent experience with Wright and Sheaf suggests the risk of overplaying players.Saka had a rest against sheffield Wednesday, he's only played 1 game in a fortnight, how much more of a rest does he need?
I’d just love it. KKSo when we go 2-0 up it's time for 'We're too sexy for this league, too sexy for this league....'
Saka probably does the most running in games, as a guessYou think the players don't do anything between games? Recent experience with Wright and Sheaf suggests the risk of overplaying players.
Obviously it wasn't ideal but if certain moves didn't work out I can understand not buying just anyone just for numbersSome selected excerpts from Robins' pre match interview...
First and foremost, its disappointing we couldn’t get him in and have him now because we needed players and quality in and we’re probably a little bit light.
We’re a little bit light in number and quality and we could have done with a few more players in.
We are operating on a thin squad and when you get an injury like ben sheaf it has an impact, so we have to hope we can keep everyone fit to maintain a challenge this season.
We’ve got what we have, and we will work with a really good talented group of players, albeit a few light in my opinion
We will have to use the young players from the academy if we need to do that. We did that at the start of the season, and we will go to that if we need to
